"Boot Load" of Donations Collected by Local Firefighters

A hand full of local firefighters from the Imperial Beach Fire Station were seen collecting "boot loads" of donations while dodging morning traffic this morning on Palm Ave & 13th Street.

Lots of motorist were seen waving bills in the air, and firefighters boots appeared to be filling up fast.

In the video, Emren Kamle explains firefighters support for the San Diego County Burn Institute programs for kids such as Camp Beyond the Scars

Since its inception in 1987, Camp Beyond the Scars has made a difference in the lives of hundreds of burned injured children, thanks in part to the volunteer efforts from local firefighters.
